Arthur Scott Bailey Bücher
Arthur Scott Bailey war ein Autor, dessen Werke sich auf die Welt der Tiere, Vögel und Insekten konzentrieren. Er bot seinen Lesern Geschichten, die Naturgeschichte in fesselnde Erzählungen einwebten und damit die Zustimmung von Pädagogen gewannen, ohne den Verdacht seiner jungen Leser zu erregen. Bailey hatte die Angewohnheit, niemals auf Kinder 'herabzuschreiben', und verwendete häufig Wörter, die über den durchschnittlichen jugendlichen Wortschatz hinausgingen, da er glaubte, dass junge Menschen auf den Reiz des Unbekannten reagieren. Sein Ansatz in der Kinderliteratur war sowohl fesselnd als auch lehrreich.

Benny Badger had good reasons for living on the high, dry plains, where he had plenty of ground squirrels and prairie dogs for neighbors. He likely enjoyed their company much more than they did his. Those little wild creatures would probably have admitted they wished Benny Badger was somewhere else. However, their wishes meant nothing to Benny. Although he noticed that his small neighbors hurried into their homes whenever they saw him, he never took the hint to leave. Instead, when he spotted a prairie dog or a ground squirrel disappearing into a burrow, Benny was eager to follow right in after them.
